ciss form: ."Mr. Clsyelsnd's nomination

the Democratic party has no ono to offer

This is au absolutely correct view Of the
Hitustion, and just estimate Of the two
parties. Tho Democracy, out Of all tho
millions OF It's voters, has but one man to
put forward for tho Presidency, and that
one, man for whom it has no Especial fond.

THE SCHOOLS.

At the meeting of the City Coun Gil on
Saturday evening while there was no bust
ness transacted, yet some very important
matter connected with the schools, was
introduced in the shape of resolution
looking to procuring lots for, and plans
and specifications of new schoolhouses
At the same time, the election of the two
school trustees was postponed until a
larger meeting Of the council should be
present and the INDIGNANT of all be obtain
ed on the trustees to be elected. We are
glad to see that spirit. The schools are
about to enter upon new career In
Staunton. their accommodations are to be
greater, their comfort increased, the
buildings are to be more healthful, and
the result of all this will be an increase
Of the number Of pupils. Under all the
circumstances, the fitness OF school trustees
is more important than it has ever been,
and We trust those who may be chosen as
such will be men in every respect
equipped for the duties which will for this
and the next year be more onerous than
they have ever been before. There is no
public officer more important in our city
than the School Trustee, and not one to
whom are entrusted interests at once 80
delicate and SO vitality important. No
officer has to undergo severer criticism
from the public. and the Council should
try and select such as shall. by their unim-
peachabIe fitness, disarm criticism in adj
vance,

FRIDAY MORNING. APRIL. Is, 1887
THE DEBT COMMISSION.


It is now likely that the deliberations
on the debt settlement will commence
about April 9th. the date on which the
legislature reassembles. The following
telegram has been received by Gov. Lee u:
MARKET LEXINGTON, April IL, 1887.
HIS Ercsllescy Governor Lee, Richmond, Va,
AmericG:
Sir Edward Thornton, who was British Min
lister at Washington, will sail by Etruria 18th
April, duly accredited by Council of Foreign
Bondholders to meet commission of legi sla-
ture. BouvER1E,
Sir Edward, we think. has had some ex-
perience in the settlement of debts for
the bondholders of Great Britain hay
ing resided in diplomatic capacity in
Mexico, Buenos Ayres, Uruguay and
Brazil on this continent. He was one of
the British members Of the commission to
settle the Alabama claims in 1871. 1t is
very likely that he will have on his arri-
val here assistants. or at least advisers in
the person Of Mr.. Royal. ex-Gov. Cham
berlain. now Of New York. W. M. Evarts,
and perhaps other gentlemen who are now
or have been attorneys for the bondbol-
ders. On Virglnia's side it is also likely
that her legislative commission will have
advisory help. When it is announced that
the conference has settled the receivable
coupon question and the fixed rate feature,
those who sincerely desire the settlement
OF the Virginia debt without regard to
whose the credit of the settlement shall
be, will breathe more freely than they do
now. After these two hills, the rest of the
road is level walking.
